Jones Tofurky And Gravy Soda

The Skinny Bitch gals said that “Soda is liquid Satan”, but Jones Tofurky & Gravy Soda may be a little less devilish.

The veggie turkey and gravy flavored product inspired by Tofurky can makes veggie soda drinkers happy and benefit the animal charity PAWS at the same time if the limited edition gift packs are purchased.

Each limited edition gift pack of faux turkey soda includes the following:

— 1 Bottle of Jones Zilch Black Cherry
— 1 Bottle of Jones Zilch Pomegranate
— 1 Bottle of Jones Zilch Vanilla Bean
— 3 Bottles of ToFurkey
— 1 ToFurkey Metal Lunch Box.

Yes! A lunch box!

For every pack sold, $1 will be donated to PAWS, People Helping Animals.

From the makers:

“Some people are crazy for turkey around the holidays… others not so much. For those of you with veggie leanings, Jones teamed up with the good folks at Tofurky® to bring you a meatless option.”

“We created this special soda for all you veg-heads out there. Best served with mashed potatoes and a couple of laughs, we hope you enjoy drinking it as much as we enjoyed making it.”

The cases are available online for $11.99.

Whoever though you could have your meal and drink to the New Year simultaneously.

Sir Paul McCartney is scheduled to speak at a European Parliament hearing on December 3 2009 to discuss how eating less meat can fight global warming.

The Global Warming and Food Policy: Less Meat = Less Heat will feature both Paul and Dr. Rajendra K. Pachauri, Chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, urging legislators to encourage people to fight climate change, which includes eating less meat.

The hearing takes place from 10 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. in Parliament’s plenary chamber and will be chaired by Vice-President Edward McMillan-Scott.

A press conference featuring Paul and Dr. Pachauri will follow.

Hope the Parliament listens to the two notable speakers.

In 2006, the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization concluded that producing the world’s beef and pork generates 18% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions versus the 13% generated by all the world’s cars, planes, trains and boats.

Relax, Al, they’re not asking you to give up something else for over a month.

Environmentalist Al Gore is being asked by PETA to go vegetarian for 30 days.

Today during one of the signing events for his latest book, Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Climate Crisis, Gore is being met by an almost naked (of course) activist dressed as Mother Earth.

Don’t ever recall any of our mothers dressing that provocatively, but oh, well.

“More and more, we are hearing about the damage that meat production does to our water supply, the forests, and the global climate,” PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman said.

“In light of these reports, we are asking Mr. Gore simply to try going vegetarian for 30 days. During that time, he could save eight animals’ lives and maybe even his own!”

Gore has already reduced his meat intake and agrees that vegetarianism should be embraced more by those who have an interest in preserving the planet.

Martha Stewart on Rachael Ray Show

Martha Stewart was set to appear on The Rachael Ray Show today to dispel rumors the two are kitchen divas in competition and discuss both of their love for cooking.

Topics of discussion included Martha’s favorite type of music (rap, yo) and why her daughter Alexis Stewart, is a vegetarian.

“Well what I think one of the catalysts was, we raised our own livestock and we had these sweet little lambs,” Martha explained. “And one day I decided Plantagenet was gonna go, and so I served Plantagenet for dinner, and I told my husband and my daughter that the rare pork chops were cooked perfectly in the French style. And Alexis looked at me and said this is not pork this is Plantagenet isn’t it? That was one reason.”

And no wonder Martha invited Snoop Dogg to her show to make mashed potatoes.

“Oh I like rap! I like rap, we play rap. When you come to the show, you’ll see. You’ll see! Oh yeah. Rap is fabulous, and it’s the liveliest thing for the audience… Rap is big!”

So when is Martha getting jiggy with the tofu like her daughter?

Leona Lewis spoke to the UK Sun where she revealed she takes her job seriously–right down to the food served at work.

“I only have vegetarian catering,” Leona said. “Everyone who works with me knows that now.

“I don’t have any meat at photoshoots and video shoots. It’ll be the same on the tour.”

Leona loves horses and although she’ll be using horse themes for her upcoming tour, she’s smart enough to know real animals don’t belong on the stage.

“Yes, we will be using some horse themes – but no real horses. That would be strange and possibly a bit dangerous!

And Leona is totally into rent-a-horse, as long as it’s done ethically.

“I ride whenever I can, which is about once a week. Luckily, you can lease horses a bit like cars.

“But I am very careful to make sure that it is not cruel in any way. I had an incident when I got hurt by a horse a few months ago. But that was my fault, not the horse’s.”

Mark Bittman, the vegan until dinner flexitarian advocate, recently discovered joy in creating Ma Po Tofu without the pork.

He described his experience in the New York Times:

“First I started a batch of the mixed grains. Then I slow-cooked about 20 of the peppercorns in oil (I was too lazy to grind them, another alternative), with three dried chiles. I removed them when the oil was fragrant (no one wants to bite on a peppercorn). Into that oil, I stirred about a quarter cup of the bean paste, which I realized for the first time is a cousin of miso.”

“I tasted the tofu thing, and added both soy sauce and salt. I scooped some grains in the dish – thanks to the black and brown rice and black sesame seeds they looked vaguely like pork (as it happened; no planning there, but I’m not lying either) – and topped it with the tofu mix. And the thing was so good I made it again two days later.”

Sounds like Mark learned being vegan at dinner’s not so bad either.

If you’re looking to attempt vegan ma po tofu, try this recipe any time of day.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and that makes us nervous because Gwyneth Paltrow is probably refining her turkey patty recipes in her otherwise pretty much vegetarian household.

However, Gwyneth is reportedly learning about the effects of the food we eat and the environment, so maybe she will rethink her decision to celebrate with birds that are usually factory farmed and killed in the most painful manner.

How is Gwyneth becoming educated?

Through porn.

From her website, Goop.com (the “SEE” section if you’re into following her ridiculous Goopy plan):

“For comic relief, Green Porno on Sundance Channel is now in its third season of deadpan puppet shows by Isabella Rossellini. I’ve learned a lot more than I want to about reproduction in the animal and insect kingdoms. This season, the third so far, has an especially eco-friendly and equally hilarious bent, showing, in the simplest of terms, where the fish we eat come from and the effect mass fishing has on the environment.”

If you’ve ever wondered how creatures get it on, Isabella gives you all the sexy details, dressing up in costume to reenact the “act.”

Why rent a movie in the adult section when you stay at home with yourself and Isabella?

As Gwyneth stated, Season 3 touches on farmed ocean life and overfishing.

Here’s a link to Isabella’s video on the Anchovy.

Anchovies are on the Marine Conservation Society Fish to Avoid list, so try an extra veggie topping on your pizza next time, pescatarians.

Weezer "Raditude"

Weezer has new album out, Raditude, and we think it sets a very bad example for the love sick vegetarian fool.

The song, (If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To, (as if the long winded-ness of that title wasn’t enough), has some poor dude eating meat in hopes he’ll get to some base with his girl.

“I took you to Best Buy, you took me home to meet your Mom and Dad
Your Mom cooked meatloaf even though I don’t eat meat
I dug you so much, I took some for the team”

Ugh!

This we learn after reading a Tweet describing Rivers Cuomo‘s amazement at veggie burger technology.

We’re wondering if Cuomo sat quietly like a veggie pus and actually ate meat during a date with an omnivore before.

All we can hope for is during the next dinner date, the “If you’re wondering,” guy made an announcement he’d just turned vegetarian.

And that this flying dog voluntarily played hurdle track star for the cover.

Raditutde features a singing collaboration with Lil Wayne (Can’t Stop) and songwriting input from The All American Rejects, Jermaine Dupree and Jackknife Lee.
